“As vet techs/veterinarians, we do have a personal responsibility for setting boundaries, finding resources, and doing what we need to take care of ourselves.” Jenn chats with a very special guest for this episode, Dr. Katie Krothapalli. A former veterinary practitioner and Veterinary Medical Officer for the U.S. Army, Dr. Krothapalli now serves as Director of Healthcare Education at Edcetera, a leading provider of professional development and continued education resources and parent company of Vetcetera. She discusses how a critical turning point led her to this current role and how she is using her experience to help others in the veterinary field. She also touches on the challenges veterinary professionals face, particularly in the wake of the pandemic, how creating space for a mental health dialogue in veterinary medicine will help push the industry forward and so much more.  Guest Social Media Links: Dr. Katie Krothapalli LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katie-krothapalli-56ab1618a  Edcetera LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/edceteralearn  Edcetera Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EdceteraLearn  Vetcetera Twitter: https://twitter.com/vet_etc  Vetcetera LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/vet-etc  Vetcetera Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/vetceterace
